SYMPTOMS

After you install the latest Windows NT version 4.0 Service Pack, running the utility Ntregmon.exe 1.1 will cause Windows NT to crashdump with a STOP 0x0000001E error in the driver Regsys.sys.

CAUSE

The Regsys.sys device driver that comes with NTREGMON directly accesses data structures internal to Windows NT. This type of access to the data structures is illegal. Anytime there is an update to Windows NT there is a possibility that these internal data structures will change. These changes result in the driver creating or utilizing invalid pointers and causing the crashdump.
